Hello Chris,

Quickly tested grep (egrep) here and, yes, options -i and -o don't gracefully co-exist. Thanks for having taken the time to report that one.

Of course, against precise cases, one could code for case-insensitivity, as in:

	[...] /usr/bin/grep --only-matching '<[aA] [hH][rR][eE][fF][^>]+\\.[jJ][pP][gG][^>]*>'"

but this doesn't make the bug disappear...
Have you submitted a bug report?

Axel
